Problems with tracksize limits... help!!! :-)

Post by TSB Cesarobom » Fri May 27, 2005 6:44 am

Hi friends, I am new in this forum and, before all, sorry about my english

I have a question for you all. Can I do tracks larger than 2000x2000 pxls???

We, in TSB (Brasil), are making a new F1 Tracks Pack but we need to do some tracks with at last 3200 pxls to mantain a proporcional reference between the tracks. How can I do it? If i make the track in the TS editor i can´t do nothing bigger than 2000 pxls, and if i do something larger than it in notepad I can´t open the file in the editor too. HELP!!! :-)

Visit our atual site with the atual f1 track pack at http://www.turboslidersbrasil.com/f12005

The tracks of the atual f1 site are ok to download at: http://mpbmarketing.com.br/bigcarva/f12 ... 05pack.zip

Thankyou all friends. :-)

Unfortunately, 2000 x 2000 is the hard limit currently. There is a limit since tracks take lots of video memory and if there were much bigger tracks, more machines would experience problems.

Thanks for your answer Ande :-), and is there any possibility to add this feature to the future editors?

Adding this to editor would not help since the game would not allow it anyway :). But I can consider allowing bigger tracks in the future. It would have to be a major version change since the big tracks would be incompatible with the older versions.
